The Mississippi and the Amazon are quite different in that <u>C) the </u><u>Amazon </u><u>is much </u><u>longer </u><u>than the </u><u>Mississippi</u><u>.</u>
The Amazon River:
- Is the second longest river in the world.
- Is longer than the Mississippi.
The Amazon river is measured to be a distance of 3,969 miles whilst the Mississippi is around 3,896 miles which means that the Amazon is longer than the Mississippi.
In conclusion, option C is correct.

As the two plates collide,the denserr oceanic plate will subduct under the less dense continential plate, causing the continential plate to arch up and form a mountain range.
Let's look into it one by one:
A. An underwater mountain range will will run along the boundary on the oceanic plate. - This is false.
As the oceanic plate subducts under the continential plate, there is no chance for the denser material to accumulate while subducting. What would be find instead is ocean trench.
B. A mountain range will form in the middle of the continental plate. - This is false.
Although pressure will be applied and there would be stress accumulating on the continential plate, the middle is very unlikely to be affected.
C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate. - This is true.
As the subduction happens, the continential plate will accumulate as it is less dense. The rock would fold up to form mountain ranges. For example, Rockies is one off the mountain range along the plate.
D. A chain of islands will form along the boundary of the oceanic plate. - This is false.
Similarly to A. it is not possible for the plate to accumulate when it slides under the other plate.
Therefore the answer is C. A mountain range will run along the boundary on the continental plate.

Dark Matter only: detected through its gravitational attraction, has mass, most common form of mass in the halo of the Milky Way Galaxy, likely to consist of subatomic particles
Dark Energy only: inferred to exist from the measured acceleration of the universe's expansion, the proposed source of a universal repulsive force
BOTH: the universe contains more of this than it contains matter made from atoms, we do not know what it is made of
NEITHER: blocks light from stars behind it, "dark" because it emits only infrared light
Answer:
NAFTA and its purpose are to eliminate the obstacles in the trade between the USA, Canada, and Mexico.
Explanation:
It is a NorthAmerican agreement for trading between these 3 countries. It is the biggest agreement for free trade. NAFTA has abolished customs duties on more than half of Mexico's exports to the US and more than today's third US to Mexico.
